Anywho, thanks very much for running the gauntlet over there ; I guess it'll be up to the downloader developers to handle this if they want, retrying the rtmpdump process using the "-c 80" option if the default doesn't connect. I guess another option would be to fork RTMPdump and add this feature ourselves.

I noticed the batch file downloader already tries "different places" if the default doesn't work. Maybe the port 80 approach could be added as another retry option. Or, maybe just make port 80 the default, if it works for Hostworks.

Cheers.
